No but Walter Jones from Seattle has. I want to say it was 3 years. Chicago should look at San Francisco as a possible bidder. They have a ton of money to burn and they need help at OLB. They were looking at paying Adalius Thomas a load of cash but NE beat them to it. I say lets snatch some draft picks from them and give them Briggs so he can be the new highest defensive player in the NFL next to Clements.

I have no doubt they could get a 2nd rounder. I just don't think they would take it. For those teams picking in the first round, they need to sign their players to new contracts too (albeit for a lower amount). Is Briggs as good as Lawrence Timmons? I certainly think so. Put him in this draft and I think he's the best linebacker available, and still about 25-26 years old.

Nobody cares about your stupid fantasy team.

But he would cost a ton more than a rookie.

The difference is that if you hold onto your pick and take Timmons you don't have to give him a ridiculous signing bonus. He also has the potential to be greater. Either way it is has its risks and rewards like any player personnel decision. Take Briggs, more of a sure thing but more of a financial burden.
